CELERY JUICE POWDER FOR CURING

Celery juice powder is commonly used in place of curing salt as a natural alternative. Cultured Celery juice powder is the strongest version available for curing meat. It can be used as jerky cure or bacon cure, and is the preferred celery powder for curing meat in any situation where natural cure is desired.

Celery Juice Powder is naturally rich in nitrates. When added to meat, these nitrates are converted into nitrites by naturally occurring bacteria in the meat. This is the same process that occurs with synthetic sodium nitrite, but in a natural way. It also helps maintain the pink color of cured meats. These naturally produced nitrites inhibit the growth of Clostridium botulinum, a bacterium that produces a deadly toxin that can cause botulism.
